ElkY Accumulating Chips

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier is another dangerous player who is making his charge here on Moving Day. ElkY came into the day with 27,200 chips, well below the average stack. He's been knocking out players left and right already today though, and he just claimed yet another victim.

Before the flop, he made a sloppy raise to about 20,000, though it was tough to tell exactly as he just plunked a big tower of yellow chips out onto the felt. A short-stacked opponent called off his last 15,000 with {8-Diamonds} {8-Hearts}, in bad shape against ElkY's {K-Diamonds} {K-Spades}.

The board ran {A-Diamonds} {J-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {Q-Hearts} {4-Hearts}, holding the overpair to give Grospellier another knockout. He's all the way up to 87,000 now, certainly a dangerous situation for the rest of the field.
